Niche partitioning of diverse sulfur-oxidizing bacteria at hydrothermal vents. [PDF]
AbstractAt deep-sea hydrothermal vents, primary production is carried out by chemolithoautotrophic microorganisms, with the oxidation of reduced sulfur compounds being a major driver for microbial carbon fixation. Dense and highly diverse assemblies of sulfur-oxidizing bacteria (SOB) are observed, yet the principles of niche differentiation between the

Diversity of Sulfur-oxidizing Bacteria at the Surface of Cattle Manure Composting Assessed by an Analysis of the Sulfur Oxidation Gene soxB. [PDF]
Sulfur-oxidizing bacterial diversity at the surface of cattle manure was characterized throughout the composting process using a sulfur oxidation gene (soxB) clone library approach. In the mesophilic phase, clones related to the genera Hydrogenophaga and Hydrogenophilus were characteristically detected.

Diverse and significant microbe-mediated mineral transformation in deep-sea hydrothermal vent indicated by Methylophaga, Sulfitobacter and Roseovarius [PDF]
Microbe-mineral interactions play a crucial role in microbial energy conservation and mineral mobilization within deep-sea hydrothermal vents, yet the specific microorganisms involved remain largely underexplored. In this study, sulfide minerals and iron-

Oxygen minimum zone cryptic sulfur cycling sustained by offshore transport of key sulfur oxidizing bacteria [PDF]
The presence and activity of sulfide-oxidizing denitrifying bacteria in sulfide-poor offshore oxygen minimum zone waters remains unclear. Here, the authors combine oceanography, molecular, biogeochemical and single-cell techniques to examine their ...

ON THE GROWTH AND RESPIRATION OF SULFUR-OXIDIZING BACTERIA [PDF]
1. It is shown that Sulfomonas thiooxidans oxidizes elementary sulfur completely to sulfuric acid. Sodium thiosulfate is oxidized by this organism completely to sulfate. Sulfomonas thiooxidans differs, in this respect, from various other sulfur-oxidizing bacilli which either produce elementary sulfur, from the thiosulfate, or convert it into sulfates ...

Degradation of Oil Shale by Sulfur-Oxidizing Bacteria [PDF]
Approximately 40% of oil shale can be solubilized by the action of sulfur-oxidizing bacteria. Thiobacillus thiooxidans and Thiobacillus concretivorous are equally effective in solubilization. Continuous leaching experiments show that this process can be
